video. If a Surface is compact and connected, if the Gaussian curvature is a constant. Then, is a Sphere!
In fact because of compactness, constant , implies that . First, because any compact surface has an Elliptic point (see argument using Height function, and existance of global maximum and minimum for Compact spaces), . Furthermore, it cannot be everywhere because that would imply that every point belongs to some path along which the normal is constant (following locally the Principal direction with eigenvalue , necessary for ). Note that compactness, which implies existence of maximum and minimum in particular for the Height function, then implies the existence of a point in the surface with any normal vector. Hmm.. However, we can parametrized the surface by following the curves with constant normal vector, and a curve that crosses all of them. This doesn't leave enough space for all normal vectors to be present in the surface.. Not very formal, but I think it works.
implies the Mean curvature is non-0, then the rest of the argument follows as in Jellet-Liebmann theorem
